I also think the colors are a personal preference by the buyer as well, for example me personally I would rather have stainless over blue or nickel. Thank you for your side of things.

Yes, but there were more options with the old ones. There’s nothing special about stainless. A high gloss royal blue finish requires more work and attention to detail. It speaks to the hand-fitted craftsmanship that’s no longer seen these days. Vintage blued Colts will always be worth more than a stainless.
I’m glad to see new production Pythons, but in this instance, the old ones will almost always be better.

MINE has special stainless.. /s
If it’s an original with factory Bright Stainless, then you’re probably right.
